Hi there brothers and sisters,

I just started this new topic on the Bitcoin talk forum to open up the discussion of Bitcoin’s development from a ethical point of view.

Any questions, theories, research or just anything related to improving the ethical development of Bitcoin is much appreciated in this newly opened topic.

I believe that the future of Bitcoin existince is based on its intrinsic values. Many of these values are being jeopardised by greed, power and controle.

If the OG Bitcoin community and Bitcoin core developers fail to execute.. it could mean the end of what Bitcoin was intended to become by Satoshi and members of the cypherpunk manifesto.

I also like to note that in this topic you are freely to speak about religious doctrines, philosophical doctrines, spiritual doctrines, atheistsic doctrines etc.

Your opinion is valued regardless of your religious or non religious views, ethnicity or color of skin, gender or gender preference and social class.

Hope all is well and let’s start this journey together.

Where did you get this crab mentality about bitcoin development and bitcoin developers from?

You got it Al wrong and just to set the record straight, butcoiyis doing pretty well and everything about bitcoin is being run according to the core satoshi mindset towards bitcoin development and it involvements.

Satoshi said, allow bitcoin to develop naturally and without interference.

And from all you pointed out, there are no sound technicalities about how Bitcoin can advance above what ut is tight now.

Hey Wiwo,

Not sure what you are referring to with ‘crab mentality’ about Bitcoin development and developers.

I think there is room for a lot of improvement for Bitcoin and its development from a governance point of view. And I think there is a lot of room for improvement for Bitcoin from a usecase point of view.

When the narrative of Bitcoin shifted in 2014 from the usecase of p2p cash into ‘digital gold’ the dynamic of what Bitcoin can possibly mean for the world shifted.

Satoshi named Bitcoin a Peer-To-Peer Electronic System and not ‘digital gold’ with a careful reason. When mankind believes and treats Bitcoin as a vehicle of investment it creates the possibility for humans to promote inequality.

A Peer-To-Peer Electronic System instead creates the opportunity for humans to use Bitcoin as a medium of exchange or economic opportunity.

Power dynamics are less involved with the latter goal.

The paradigm shift that took place this year in Bitcoin’s adoption from a global governmental and tradefi markets point of view showcases the importance of Satoshi’a message embedded in the genesis block:

“The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.”

A message referring to the headline of the London newspaper, The Times, on the noted date.
The U.K. government was bailing out the banks for the second time during that period.

Satoshi’s message should remind us all how important it is to govern Bitcoin in such a way that Bitcoin’s usecase is separated from any power dynamics within government and state. A significant change is happening as we speak.

Thusfar my response for usecase and trajectory of Bitcoin.

My second response is regarding the governance point of view:

It is widely known that various contributors and maintainers of Bitcoin core have their personal world views from a religious, spiritual and ethical standpoint. If the OG and the new contributors and mainters of Bitcoin truly want Bitcoin to become adopted on a continuous global scale it is important that those involved with its governance are aligned to make it work for all of humankind.

It takes hard work to get people aligned for such a manifestation. A team of humanbeings working together for the all of the humanrace is a team healed of all the indoctrinations of hate.

A team of peace.

Let me know if you have any questions?
